It was about 5 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and me were relaxing there talking about the weekend's golf, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Ashorne and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Dacia lease car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and a lot less worried. A fuel drain in Warwickshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Warwickshire we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not knowing how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will often trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations quite expediently.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Warwickshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ashorne (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Warwickshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your car. They will fix the most common issues that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Ashorne - Ashorne Fuel Drain

The other day a young man contacted us soon after his Jaguar died along a street in Ashorne. He had by mistake put unleaded in his diesel car and drove as far as the road before needing to pull over. It was yet early in the morning and our engineer, who lives not far away, got to him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your prompt response, particularly at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
